This forward-looking Research Handbook makes an insightful contribution to the emerging field of studies on communication of, by and with AI. Bringing together state-of-the-art research from over 50 leading international scholars across various fields, it provides a comprehensive overview of the complex intersections between AI and communication.

The team of expert contributors explore key conceptual, theoretical and methodological approaches and examine a variety of ethical considerations, legal issues and policy implications of AI across diverse contexts. The Handbook spans a wide range of topics related to AI-empowered, immersed, mediated and integrated communications. These range from the role of news media and digital communication platforms in constructing, representing and framing AI across different countries and cultures, to the public understanding of, attitude towards and interaction with AI and its related technologies. Offering foundational guidance on AI and communication, the Research Handbook will stimulate further intellectual inquiry for future scholarship in this rapidly evolving area.

Cross-disciplinary in scope, this dynamic Research Handbook will prove an essential reference for students and scholars in multiple fields, including communication, computer science, data and information science, sociology, business, and education. Policymakers and practitioners will also find it a valuable resource to help inform AI-related regulations and policies.
